This research focused on the ability and strength of "terrorist" families in dealing with certain condition and problem after their family member was arrested as terrorist. This problem and certain condition arose due to the fact that one of their family members becomes a suspect in a criminal act of terrorism. This study particularly explored the family dynamics in dealing with problems, reactions from surrounding communities, local government actions, both negative stigma, as well as positive support from community, discrimination and the resilience of terrorist families. The method used in this study was qualitative method specifically using the phenomenological tradition by exploring the subject experience. Subjects or informants in this study were individuals who have specific background (having family member who was arrested as terrorist) and people who know about these events. The purpose of this study is to obtain an overview with the dynamics of psychological problems and resilience of terrorist families in the face of pressure, prejudice, negative stigma and possible discrimination from society, and to describe it as a research report from the perspective of the terrorist suspect's family. Collecting data in this study was done through in depth interview for the primary data and observation for secondary data. The result of this study showed a picture of the terrorist family with the dynamics of psychological problems in facing negative stigma and discrimination experienced in their daily lives. This can be used as an illustration of family resilience in facing problems and difficult situations

Neuroscience studies are currently drawing the baseline on neurobiological mechanism behind the mind of terrorist and violent-extremist through several interdisciplinary research. As the current state of terrorism and radicalization has been continuously studied in diverse fields such as Sociology, Political Science, Criminology, Conflict Resolution, Economic Science, Social Psychology, Clinical Psychology and more, yet it seems there is just few approaches has been implemented to understand the complexities of terrorism and radicalization through bottomup neurobiological analyses. This paper aims to provide comprehensive review of neuroscience research and approach on terrorism and radicalism through interdisciplinary studies. The database used for this literature review includes several international journal databases related to neuroscience, neurobiology, radicalization, terrorism, extremism, criminal psychology, and social neuroscience. From the mentioned journal database, it has been concluded that the integrative multi-layer approaches which included neuroscience perspective have giving more comprehensive empirical clarity on socio-genic level as well as new fruitful insights on neural basis and neurobiology mechanism which explained the mind of terrorist and violent-extremist, particularly on the contributions of genetic predictors, justice sensitivity, cognitive flexibility, neural basis and cognitive closure within radicalization process. More future multi-layer perspectivebased studies are on demand to interpret and explore comprehensively the gene-culture reciprocal interaction on the radicalism and terrorism complexities

Based on study of 177 millennial Muslims in Indonesia who actively engaged in the hijrah movement through their Instagram, this study aims to reveal the relationship between FOMO and problematic use of social media, with the articulation of Islamic identity. The measuring instruments used in this research were the adaptation of the FOMO scale, the ad­aptation of social media disorder scale and the articulation of Islamic identity on Instagram scale. The results of the analysis using multiple regression showed that simultaneously FOMO and problematic use of social media predicted the articulation of Islamic identity with a simultaneous effective contribution of 40.6% (36.7% the contribution of social media use & 3.9% the contribution of FOMO). We also found that FOMO independently had no correlation with the articulation of Islamic identity, but the use of problematic social media proved to have a significant correlation with the articulation of Islamic identity. These findings may serve as a basis for further research related to the theme of religious identity articulation in social media and the formulation of interventions for excessive use of social media.
